Client names are withheld for confidentiality.
INDUSTRIAL MANUFACTURING
Full relocation of a hand-tool manufacturing plant
Challenge. Move an entire production facility without missing customer deliveries.
What was done. Relocation planned in two 3-week phases. Production continuity strategy, site preparation, safety compliance and staff onboarding. Led 9 direct reports and coordinated more than 20 subcontractors.
Results. Zero production delay · zero late deliveries · 100% machine restart · full pre-relocation output in 3 weeks.
LUXURY WATCHMAKING
New production sites for luxury watchmaking
Challenge. Build and fit out greenfield industrial sites without delaying the client's production plans.
What was done. Full program structuring (OBS, WBS), master and detailed scheduling, coordination of all stakeholders and reporting.
Results. Sites delivered with zero production delay for client operations.
INDUSTRIAL MANUFACTURING
Production line transfers and dismantling
Challenge. Dismantle, relocate and reinstall complete production lines while protecting output.
What was done. Installation, dismantling and relocation of full lines, with process flow redesign and line efficiency improvements.
Results. Zero production delay across all projects · 100% machine restart at handover · full production capacity within 6 weeks.
SEMICONDUCTORS
Capacity expansion in semiconductor manufacturing
Challenge. Add production capacity in a high-precision cleanroom environment.
What was done. Equipment installation and infrastructure adaptation within an operating fab.
Results. Coordinated transitions and visible risks.
Also in our founder's track record: facility and infrastructure investment projects for a global packaging leader, including a waste reprocessing unit from specification to validation.
Practical experience. Independent perspective.
Every program is different. We bring a clear structure, hands-on planning and an objective view of what needs to happen next.
